Hey, im sick of waiting for a release of Armada in europe so i was considering importing, now i was just wondering if the codes that unlock dvd players in us work on a similar basis over here, if they do, anyone care to talk me through it. If not does anyone know if you can get one of those action replay things for a 360 to watch universal dvds??

It depends on the model of your DVD Player, if you give the make and model number we can find out if it can be unlocked.

IMO though, the best option for playing foreign DVDs is always going to be your PC.

its just a cheapo dvd player, make is 'Pacific' model is dvd900.


dvd play back on my pc is pretty poor due to it being old and im really not a fan of watching things on it, would rather get it on my dvd

If it's a cheapie one, it might not be region locked. Few years ago, my dad bought his first DVD player fairly cheap. It annoyed a friend of his no end that the friend's very expensive player would only play UK region DVDs, whereas my dad's cheap one would play anything.
